Beyoncé: Nala

The Lion King

Nala

Nala: We have to do something.
Sarabi: Nala, Scar is the king.
Nala: But you are our queen. We should leave before it's too late.
Sarabi: We must stay together and protect the Pride Lands. This is our home. We must never abandon it.
Nala: This isn't the home I remember.
Sarabi: Our time will come Nala. Be patient.
Shenzi: Sarabi, the king wishes to see you.
Nala: Don't go.
Sarabi: I am not afraid of him.

Scar: Simba... I'm so happy to see you
[Angrily glares at the hyenas behind him]
Scar: Alive.
Simba: [angry] Give me one good reason why I shouldn't rip you apart.
Scar: I can give you more than one. You see... they think I'm king.
Nala: Well, we don't. Your reign is over, Scar. Simba is the rightful king! If you wanna get him, you have to get through us. Are you with me, lions?
Simba: The choice is yours, Scar. Step down or fight.
Scar: Must this all end in violence? I'd hate to be responsible for the death of a family member. To feel the shame of knowing... I took the life of someone I love.
Simba: I put all that behind me.
Scar: But have they put it behind them? Do your faithful subjects know what you've done?
Nala: What is he talking about?
Scar: So you haven't told them your little secret? Well, Simba... now's your chance to confess. Tell them who's responsible for Mufasa's death.
Simba: It was me.
Sarabi: It's not true. Tell me it's not true.
Simba: It's true. I'm sorry.
Scar: He admits it. Murderer!
Simba: No, no. It was an accident.
Scar: If it weren't for you the king would be alive. It's your fault he's dead! Do you deny it?
Simba: I'm not a murderer.
Scar: We should believe a son who takes the life of a father? We should believe a son who takes the life of a king? A son who abandons his mother?

Shenzi: [Shenzi and Nala face-off] .Now, this is a meal I've waited my whole life for.
Nala: I've been waiting too. And I'm not a cub anymore!
[Nala manages to defeat Shenzi]

Sarafina: Nala come here, sit with us.
Nala: [Zazu arrives] Zazu, where have you been?
Zazu: I'm sorry Nala, I came as soon as I could.
[the sounds a hyena is heard]
Sarabi: The morning report, Zazu.
Zazu: Your Majesty, the Pride Lands are in imminent danger. The hyenas are chasing off the last of the herds
Azizi: The birds back.
Kamari: Get him!
[Kamari and Azizi try to chase off Zazu]
Kamari: Don't come here again unless you want to be eaten.

Zazu: [Nala leaving the Pridelands at night] Just what do you think you are doing, young lady?
Nala: Go away, Zazu. I'm going to find help.
Zazu: I will very much not go away. I am sworn to protect you, and must order you back to bed.
Nala: I don't need protecting anymore.

Simba: I told you, isnt it great here? You know maybe it will be like this forever.
Nala: It's amazing. But there's... there's something I don't understand, if you been alive all this time why haven't you come home? We really needed you.
Simba: There fine... alright, nobody needs me.
Nala: Your the king.
Simba: Nala, Scar is the king.
Nala: Simba he's decimated the pridelands, there's no food, no water.
Simba: There's nothing I can do.
Nala: What about your mother? This is your responsibility. You need to challenge Scar.
Simba: I can't go back, ever.
Nala: Why? Because of what happened at the gorge? Scar told us that...
Simba: You wouldn't understand, none of it matters okay, Hakuna Matata.
Nala: [confused] What?
Simba: It's something, I learned out here okay. You see sometimes bad things happen and there's nothing you can do about it, so why worry?
Nala: Why worry? What happened to you? You're not the Simba I remember.
Simba: And I never will be, are you satisfied?
Nala: No, I'm disappointed.
Simba: You know, now you're starting to sound like my father.
Nala: Good, I'm glad one of us does.
Simba: [angry] You have no idea what I've been through.
Nala: I came here looking for help, I guess I made a mistake. Goodbye Simba.

Simba: Timon, Pumbaa, I want you to meet my best friend, Nala.
Timon: Best friend? Well, that hurts.
Simba: Nala, you're going to love it here. This place is amazing. It's everything you could ever want.
Nala: Simba, we need to leave. Scar has taken over with the hyenas. You have to take your place as king.
Timon: King? Simba?
Pumbaa: We kneel before you as humble servants.
[They both laugh]
Simba: Pumbaa, relax. She's wrong.
Timon: Lady, you've got your lions crossed
Pumbaa: Nice.
Nala: Seeing you again, you don't know what this will mean everyone. What this means to me. You have to come home
Simba: This is my home. Please stay. This place is incredible. I know you'll love it.
Nala: I can't.
